Abstract :
A new defected ground structure (DGS) consisting of three numbers of circular slots connected by two thin slots underneath a microstrip line is proposed. Both simulated and measured S-parameter results shows a very sharp lowpass filtering characteristics with one number of pole and one number of zero at finite frequencies. Thus DGS unit is modeled by 3nd order elliptical lowpass filter. Cascading two cells under microstrip line realize a 3-pole lowpass filter. By replacing simple microstrip line by HI-LO line, improved filter performance is obtained.
